Muddy Rivers Lodge is nestled in a unique part of Illinois for
waterfowl hunting. We are located right on the Mississippi River and we
are only a few miles from the Illinois River. This creates a natural
funnel for migrating birds coming down both of these exceptional flyways.
Hunt mallards, pintail, widgeon, gadwall, wood ducks, and teal along with
Canadian geese from our flooded grain fields. Or,
experience the thrill of hunting diver ducks on the mighty Mississippi
River.
We provide over twenty heated pits and blinds located in flooded corn,
bean, and millet fields. Hunts on the Mississippi River will be from one
of our two islands or from pontoon blinds. Guests are driven to within a
short walking distance of blinds, shortly before legal shooting hours.
Master guide and operations manager Leon Holcomb will have decoys set and
dog in place in anticipation of the
morning's excitement.
Waterfowl hunts are from legal shooting time until 11:00a.m. We recommend
you try one of our waterfowl/upland combination hunts. On a combination
hunt you will hunt duck in the morning, break for lunch,
and then go to the upland field for an afternoon hunt. Hardcore duck hunter?
Then choose one of our Duck/Duck combinations. You will do a normal duck
hunt in the morning, have lunch, then move to another blind for the
evening flight.
If you have the itch to start duck season early, come for early season
Teal and Dove hunts in September. We also offer late goose and light goose
hunts.

- Your gun
- Heavy clothing (coveralls, hat and gloves)

- Boots

advance)
